A New Beginning II FOREWORD

FOREWORD


As an observer and a utilizer of this phenomenon of nonphysical beings who communicate and interact through this physical apparatus of my wife, Esther, I know that they are brilliant, joyous and loving and that they have named themselves, Abraham. But after five years, and thousands of hours, of deliberate interaction with Abraham -- I remain without technical terminology to express to you, who or what they are or how their are process of communication occurs.

However, it is not necessary to understand the technical "who or what or how"of the phenomenon of electricity in order to utilize or observe the benefits of electricity, and neither it is necessary to have a technical comprehension of this phenomenon of Abraham before we can experience the advantages that Abraham offers... advantages that can be as broad and as deep And as ongoing as is our wanting.

Whether you are reading this book from your conscious wanting or from another's wanting to help bring into manifestation something that they believe they you want, it can serve you -- whether your current degree of personal fulfillment -- as a stimulus to another, clear," new beginning" segment of your life experience... and , to a more conscious awareness that "the pathway to all that you are wanting is through the corridor of your joy."

A reader's comment: "I studied and struggled, for over 30 years, to understand my life, and now -- after this brief exposure to the teachings at Abraham -- the searching and the stress are in my past. And how wonderful it feels, as I now, for the first time, begin to joyously, consciously live my life!"

As you proceed, point by point, through these pages, expect to find a new clarity; expect to discover practical processes and concepts; expect to be uplifted, and expect a new awareness of your power to uplift those who also seek more joy.

A New Beginning II, stands as a powerful stimulus to thought and to growth, but should you want a broader understanding of Abraham's basic philosophies, or more background of the evolution that Esther and I have experienced, consider reading A New Beginning I, published in 1988.

As I italicize and highlight segments that, from my perspective, are pivotal points towards comprehension, and as I read these materials, again and again, I am exhilarated as I envision your exciting flashes of awareness as you discover the treasures of understanding the you have felt, within you, from the beginning of your existence. For it will rise the surface of your consciousness -- the knowledge of just how valuable and how powerful, and how perfect you already are.

Transcriber's note:
I really want to point out the fifth paragraph, the last portion of the last sentence which reads:
".....expect a new awareness of your power to uplift those who also seek more joy."

Notice that this forward is from Jerry, who is an important part of the summoning of Abraham and who is also an important factor in the intentions of this publication. The reason that I find this text very interesting is because the motive of uplifting others is the basis for the understanding of influence, and, as stated previously, what is very interesting about this particular book is that influence is a much discussed topic in A New Beginning II. It is my intention to highlight this point repeatedly for the relevant sections of the book. ~DS
